This seems a little bit unfair to me.
Yes, it is a bit unfair. People are not treated as who they are, but as what they are perceived. I am sorry, Georg-Johann Lay, for mis-interpreting your initial post. Usually it works out all right because more than one person who could answer the question reads it, and one eventually answers. But sometimes it doesn't. If you get an incorrect answer, you might hit the jackpot, as there will likly be multiple and very detailed corrections.
We do have volunteers, and we should encourage them.
Agreed.
